Like most people, I left high school biology class, where the works of Darwin and Mendel were taught, believing that I had learned the truth about man’s origin and evolutionary development. It was not until I encountered college and graduate school statistics that I realized that life could not possibly have occurred by chance on this planet, but I had a growing family to support and could not spend much time thinking about such grand questions. For all those years I got by with a vague concept that, yes, evolution was the answer, but it was God-directed.

Then I stumbled upon Dr. Michael Behe’s book,

The scary thing about atheists is they can’t say where our rights come from.

And how does an athiest distinguish right from wrong. From my observations they choose their actions based on convenience.

A lot of times.

A lot of times they freeload onto Christianity without giving credit where credit is due.

I left highschool biology with a lot of questions, and was excited to think that I was going to get those questions answered when I took college biology. I came away from college biology convinced that it was impossible for life to have started on it's own, and incredible that evolution was so lacking in evidence, yet so widely accepted. However, being raised as a complete secularist, I had no idea that there was any alternative, and no idea that there was even a debate. I remember how dissapointed I was when I raised my hand in college biology and asked if scienctists had been able to generate "life" in the laboratory, and the professor told me "almost". What a joke.

Evolutionism is a false religion.

Those who refuse to acknowledge God, will not give up. Most have by now moved on to hypotheses about "multiple universes," in the hope that by allowing an infinite number of other universes in which random processes produced random results, we can excuse this one for being so exceptionally non-random.

No, I don't think so. That door of retreat is being slammed shut. Christians are starting to get a grip on quantum physics too, particularly the implications of a variable speed of light as it relates to time. It explains quite a bit about the spiritual realm, and the nature of these 'multiple universes'. They will ultimately find the creator's fingerprints there too.
